The feds are investigating Herbalife on charges that the nutritional supplement company is allegedly a vast pyramid scheme. The inquiry into the company comes amid accusations and a lobbying effort by billionaire Bill Ackman.

The launch of the official investigation has caused a dip in the company’s share price.
